Common Radio Features

PTT-ID (Optional)

This stands for Push-to-Talk ID. This feature is programmed as
needed for each channel by your system manager.
If this feature is made available for your talkgroup, it allows you to see
the ID number of the radio from which you are receiving a
transmission. This ID could be up to eight characters in length and is
shown on your display as well as on your dispatcher's display.
In addition, your radio ID number is automatically sent when you
transmit. For digital voice transmissions, your radio ID is sent
continuously during the voice transmission.

Time-Out Timer

A time-out timer function prevents locking up a repeater or channel by
prolonged keying of the transmitter. You cannot transmit longer than
the preset timer setting. If you attempt to do so, the radio
automatically stops your transmission, and you hear a talk-prohibit
tone.
Note: You will hear a brief, low-pitched, warning tone four seconds
before the transmission times out.
The timer is set for 60 seconds at the factory, but it can be
reprogrammed by a qualified radio technician for between 15 and 465
seconds (7.75 minutes), in 15-second intervals, or it can be disabled
entirely for each radio mode.
